I've cooked a kazillion fryers on my smokin tex and always smoke them at 225. I see no reason for the higher temperatures. Let the chickens smoke for 4 hours at this temp and they are well smoked and tender. This longer slow smoking is what imparts the flavor.

Luke, I just smoked some chicken breasts, rubbed with oil. Skin was rubbery. Would Pam make a difference?
